Blow, you cool, damp breeze,
look up and speak to me.
There is a dance inside this nest,
cover the sky with dark clouds.
O peacock of the mountain forest,
O rabbit with a beauty mark,
you are spreading clothes to dry over thorns.
I have come here seeking shelter,
barely surviving after my escape.
Yet you are trying to marry yourself to sorrow.
Keeping your affection hidden inside,
do not put on this false act.
Like a turnip buried in the soil,
do not hide me away inside your eyes.
Was it not to take shelter in the mountains
that I came as mist in the night?
Was it only to drink up that mist
that you arrived like the blazing sun by day?
Blow, you cool, damp breeze,
look up and speak to me.
There is a dance inside this nest,
cover the sky with dark clouds.
I was just a carved stone, but because of you,
I became a woman draped in a sari.
Was my life born only to weep?
To let our bodies blossom with sweat,
come to me, oh come.
Just because you dress a man in a sari
and bring him here,
should I believe that you are a woman?
Leave quietly without saying a word.
I have no life left to celebrate,
so go away, just go.
Ah, against this chill that steals
the breath from within,
my hair can become your blanket.
Male: A goatskin might become my blanket,
but can a living goat be a blanket?
My dear dark man...
why this arrogance?
Tell me the truth.
A tick that latches onto the flesh
will never let go once attached.
Do not suck the life out of me, girl,
there is no warmth left in my life, so go.
Like sesame crushed in an oil press,
for no reason at all,
do not get battered and broken.
Won't you listen to what I say?
Look at the quiet tears on my shoulders before you go.
I am just a headless
little insect,
and you are trying to place a crown on me.
Female: Like burying its head
in the sand,
you are deceiving me like an ostrich.
To pull me in
and hold me tight against your chest,
isn't that what you secretly desire?
Blow, you cool, damp breeze,
look up and speak to me.
There is a dance inside this nest,
cover the sky with dark clouds.
